About Converting Slugs per Cup to Short tons per Cubic Millimeter
Slug per Cup and Short ton per Cubic Millimeter both measure density — mass per unit volume — a property used to identify materials, check manufacturing quality, and predict whether something floats or sinks. As a fixed reference point, water has a density of exactly 1000 kg/m³ (1 g/cm³, 1 g/mL) at its temperature of maximum density, which is why many density figures in science and engineering are quoted relative to water. Both are mass per volume density units.
Formula
short tons per cubic millimeter = slugs per cup × 6.799588e-8
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 slug per cup equals 61684.8206534 base units, and 1 short ton per cubic millimeter equals 907184740000 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct slug per cup-to-short ton per cubic millimeter factor of 6.799588e-8.
Simple example
1 slug/cup × 6.799588e-8 = 6.799588e-8 ton/mm3
1 slug per cup = 6.799588e-8 short tons per cubic millimeter.
Real-world example
1,000 slug/cup × 6.799588e-8 = 0.0000679959 ton/mm3
1,000 slugs per cup = 0.0000679959 short tons per cubic millimeter.

What is a slug per cup?
Slug per Cup (slug/cup) is a unit of density.
What is a short ton per cubic millimeter?
Short ton per Cubic Millimeter (ton/mm3) is a unit of density.
Is the slug per cup to short ton per cubic millimeter conversion exact?
Yes. Both slug per cup and short ton per cubic millimeter are defined by fixed standards rather than physical artifacts, so the factor of 6.799588e-8 used above is exact to as many digits as you choose to display.
What's the difference between density and mass concentration?
Density is the mass of a pure substance or material per unit volume. Mass concentration is the mass of one component — like a dissolved solute — within a mixture's total volume. The two use the same kind of units but describe different physical situations.
